Noticed this just because it affected who I'm facing in the National championship game:
last week of regular season, #2 Iowa vs. #3 Michigan State. Iowa is undefeated, MSU has 1 loss (conf loss). MSU wins, moves up to #2 behind me, Iowa to #5. This is where it gets hairy.
Both teams now have a conference loss, and MSU won the head-to-head, but Iowa goes to the Big Ten Championship game. Anyone know why? ??
Anyway, Iowa beats #9 Penn State by a point, and moves back up to #3 in the polls, ties MSU in the BCS rankings (.994), and is facing me in the BCS championship game!!!
They lose in their last game, MSU stays home, Iowa wins a game they should by 1 point, and jumps back up!
Sucks to be a Spartan, lol. Anyone else notice anything like this?

The only way that this happens in real life is if there is a 3rd team in the tie breaker.
Say Michigan St beat Iowa, Iowa beat Ohio St, and Ohio St beat Michigan St. These are each of the teams only conference loss. I don't know how they settle the tiebreaker (I think it is whoever is highest in the BCS Rankins, but I'm really not for sure).
But I had something happen to me that pissed me off more. Me and some friends were in our first year of an online dynasty. I was Florida and basically redshirted my whole team. I didn't redshirt Chris Rainey and he was my everything. My #1 rusher, receiver, and punt/kick returner. I set so many unreadable records, led the Heisman the whole year, and ended up with almost 10,000 All Purpose Yards. And I'm undefeated and the #1 team at the time. I advance to the week it announces the winner.........and I DONT WIN THE HEISMAN. One of my friends who plays with Oregon has LaMichael James with 2500 All Purpose Yards and somehow wins the Heisman over me. I was so mad that I wanted to break my game. How that's possible I'll never know, but it caused me to think the awards were all nonsense and pointless to the game. Never even payed attention to them after that.
